I'm really not sure what is being asked. If you are asking about shoes on the horse they are called horse shoes. Boots for equestrians are called different things depending on the type. There are field boots, dress boots, paddock boots and riding sneakers. There are also theapeutic boots for injuries or support during strenuous workouts. Easy Boots, splint boots, skid boots, bell boots, shipping boots, hock boots are just a few of the available boots for horses.
Depends on what kind of boots your talking about... Competition Boots such as splint boots are used to support and prevent injury to tendons during strenuous activities such as gaming or just galloping in general. They also help prevent a horse from clipping itself on an obstacle when jumping or overreaching w/ its hind legs and also prevent injuries from impact upon landing. Helpful to use on horses that crossfire or brush their legs together occasionally. Bell boots (or overreach boots) are to help prevent the horse from stepping on the back of their front feet and possibly tearing out an important tendon. Although it is recommended to by a no turn version that won't spin and become (1) useless and (2) uncomfortable for the horse. Skid boots are similar to bell boots but are usually higher and used frequently in activities where the horse is required to stop quickly (such as roping) as opposed to gaming or jumping. Not every horse needs to wear boots if they seem able to avoid clipping themselves during what ever competitive riding you do. Although some horses can even manage to do this simply having a little fun in the pasture, so I've always felt somewhat nervous about leaving them off my horse. Boots are also helpful on trails that might be a little rough and do a decent job keeping the legs clean when you are wading through a foot of mud. Just make sure you invest in a pair that is comfortable for the horse, does what it is required of what your using it for and doesn't keep your horse too warm (which isn't a problem where I live but has been for many of my friends). Good luck :) I have a 16hh Irish thoroughbred and he is recovering from a fetlock strain i use fetlock boot on him when jumping or doing pole work in case he hit his leg of the poles :D
=Most protective boots, if they are the front boots, have velcro straps that connect the boot. The boots should have a part that the fetlock goes into, this piece will be a little area that looks like a bump. Place the fetlock in the bump and then wrap the boot around the leg and attach the velcro to the opposite side of the boot. They should be as tight as possible but you should be able to get a finger in them. =
There are some small bones near the bottom of a horse's legs call splint bones. During activities like hard riding, jumping, cutting these bones can get broken. Splints boots are used to protect against this.
Riding boots usually have smooth soles to prevent them from getting stuck in the stirrups in case of a fall. This design allows the foot to easily slip out of the stirrup to avoid being dragged along with the horse. Riders often rely on the correct positioning of their feet and legs, along with proper technique, to maintain their balance and control while riding.
usually a boot that is made for riding, bought from your local tack store. I ride in paddock boots and half-chaps, but other's ride in full length rubber or leather riding boots if you ride english. For western you where cowboy boots. Or for either you can save money and just wear plain old rubber boots.
as long as they are strong boots
shoes with a small heel riding boots or jodphur boots are best
longer riding boots are better in my opinion as they make riding more comfortable for both horse and rider. Your appearance also looks much better with longer boots.
you need a helmet, riding boots, riding pants, and a crop( if your horse is slow ). you can find these things at the store Horsing Around.
Boots or sneakers.
kijiji is a good start.
I would reccomend Dover Saddlery
The tall riding boots of today are the ancestors of boots worn by 17th century British soldiers. On the battlefield these tall boots protected the lower legs and gave the soldiers better contact with the horse's side.
$40 to $400 in Australia
One can purchase men's riding boots from many different places online and offline. One can get them from Amazon, Ebay, and any other horse riding business.
There are several places that sell horse and rider gear. I use Dover Saddlery, since I am an English rider, but there are also other stores, like Horse and Rider. You can probably find a location near you on a store's website. Also, if you no what size you need, you can consider buying online.
